Design of the Jellyfish Lampshade.The Jellyfish lampshade is designed using fractal techniques and traditional 3D computer aided design methods. The body of the jellyfish is a modified Mandelbulb fractal. The tentacles are modelled in Rhino 3D, including the chains which take advantage of the ability for 3D printing to create moving parts. The resulting detailed design creates a fascinating lighting feature.
